Her blue eyes brightened. “Yes. Fascinating. Can you use them, too?”

I shrugged. “I think it’s mostly Drake.”

“That’s fine.” She licked her lips. “Do you think we could get him to come out and play in the bedroom?”

Oh, without a doubt. “I think he could be persuaded.”

She laughed as I hugged her against me. “Good.”

My smile tightened. “Are you okay? With what happened to Bells?”

A flicker of sorrow crossed her face. “She made those choices, and they had consequences. She’ll have to face a judge for it.”

“And Roderick, too.”

Mateo didn’t survive his untimely fall. I wasn’t upset about it.

“I talked to Phyllis. She said her brother needed to learn his lesson, and prison time should help him gain perspective.”

Damn. She was hardcore.

“You know she’s staying on with your dad, right?”

I smirked. “Yeah. I think they’re good for each other.”

“Me too.”

Skel rushed into our room. “Creature. Fuck.”

“What is it?” I braced for whatever bad news he had to share, wanting one fucking day without having to shield my woman or my club from a threat. “And where the fuck have you been? I blew up your fucking phone.”

“That’s what I’m sayin’, brother. I did a deep dive on the web and found information about a hit ordered by the Bladed Serpents. Issued when your father was V.P.”

“His own club called the hit on his family?”

Skel tensed. “Yeah, brother. I’m sorry. Looks like someone tried to cover it up, too, but they weren’t good at it.”

“Who?” I roared, grasping Blair’s hips and setting her on the mattress.

“We need to look into it, but Ratchet is the president of the Bladed Serpents now.”

Ratchet? “He used to be the Treasurer when Tinman was the V.P.”

“Yep. If he didn’t order the hit, he has to know something about it. I’ve found some shady shit with the club’s books. There’s a connection that’s mentioned multiple times. Luis Diego.”

Fuck. “We need to take this to Maddog as soon as he returns.”

“Agreed.”

After all this time, I was finally gonna find the motherfucker who ordered my mother’s murder. There would be no mercy once I did.
